Hi all,
Richer Sounds have the Philips Cinema 21:9 56PFL9954H 56in LCD TV for £1000, which for a recent top of the line TV that started at £4500 seems like a good price.
I've read loads and loads about how it handles different aspect ratios etc, but was wondering how XBMC would display on it? The resolution is 2,560 x 1,080 so will XBMC auto adjust and fit without cropping? I am running Live through a dedicated Revo.
Also, as the TV re-fits a 16:9 1080p source to fit the screen, from reviews it does it very very well, I can only assume 720p TV shows will also scale to fit the full screen as they are the same 16:9 ratio?
Anyone got any first hand experience with this TV and XBMC? I play all my movies and HD TV through XBMC, and gaming on the 360
I'm so tempted to just go buy it!!!
